1. When turning left, you should:

Press the right handgrip.

Press the left handgrip.

Press both handgrips at the same time.

Not press either handgrip.

A motorcycle must lean to make a turn. To make it lean in the appropriate direction, press the handgrip in the direction you want to turn.

2. When preparing to pass another vehicle on the left, you should:

Ride in the right portion of the lane.

Ride in the left portion of the lane.

Get as close as possible to the vehicle in front of you.

Not signal your intentions, as that may distract the driver you are passing.

When passing another vehicle on the left, you should ride in the left portion of your lane. Signal your intentions and check for traffic. Pass when it is safe to do so, then signal and return to your original lane when traffic allows.

3. A properly-fitted motorcycle:

Allows the rider to touch the ground with their feet while seated.

Has a seat even with the rider's waist.

Has a seat that is 10 inches above the rider's waist.

Has a seat that is 10 inches below the rider's waist.

If your motorcycle fits you properly, your feet should be able to reach the ground while you are seated. When riding your motorcycle, keep your feet firmly on the footrests.

4. Just like cars, motorcycles have blind spots. When switching lanes, you should:

Turn your head and check your blind spot.

Look only at your mirrors.

Rely on your peripheral vision.

Slow down so any vehicle in your blind spot can pass you.

Blind spots, by definition, are areas that you cannot see by just looking in your mirrors. Turn your head to the side and check over your shoulder for vehicles in your blind spot before you change lanes.

5. Your lane position should:

Keep your intentions hidden from other drivers.

Encourage other drivers to share your lane.

Increase your ability to see and be seen.

Be close to the road signs.

A properly chosen lane position should provide a number of benefits, including an increased ability to see others and to be seen. It should help you avoid wind blasts, other drivers' blind spots, and surface hazards. Your lane position should discourage other drivers from trying to share your lane and provide you with an escape route, should a hazard arise.
